EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (Blugolds.com) – The UW-Eau Claire women's hockey team held off the Green Knights of St. Norbert College to win 4-3 at Hobbs Ice Center today.

The Blugold victory came with a four-goal second period that led to a 4-2 lead in which the Green Knights could not come back from.

Down 2-0, Emily Larson(Jr.-Bemidji, Minn.) started the scoring off for the Blugolds with an unassisted goal in the 10th minute of the second period. Just two minutes and 20 seconds later, Emily Haluska(Sr.-Stevens Point, Wis./SPASH) kept the Blugolds hot with a second goal to tie the game at two.
